Tender description

Haringey Council (‘HC’) is seeking to procure a development partner to deliver a regeneration scheme in the High Road West regeneration area (‘HRW Area’) in North Tottenham. HC is seeking to enter into a development agreement with a partner who will establish a lead role in delivering regeneration and growth across the c.11 hectare HRW Area. The selected partner will need to share in HC's robust objectives for the HRW Area, building on the vision set out in the 2014 High Road West Master-plan Framework, the Tottenham Area Action Plan, the Strategic Regeneration Framework and the Corporate Plan. HC intends to secure and transfer land for the HRW Area on a phased basis once conditions precedent have been satisfied and vacant possession is achieved. Together, HC and the partner will harness the HRW Area's potential to become a more balanced and prosperous area and an important part of the future of London. The HRW scheme is 1 of London's most exciting regeneration opportunities, offering the potential to deliver at least 1 400 new homes, 8 800 m2 of commercial space and new community facilities structured within a creative and inspiring framework of place-making. The scheme seeks to secure physical, social and economic regeneration outcomes providing sustainable neighbourhoods that embed opportunities for significantly improved health and well-being for local communities. The HRW scheme provides the opportunity to deliver: — A minimum of 1 400 new high-quality homes to include 145 new high-quality council homes and 46 shared equity homes; — A minimum of 4 800m2 of A1, A3, A4 retail space; — A minimum of 3 000m2 of D2 leisure space; — A minimum of 1 000m2 of B1 business space; — A new 1 400 m2 library learning centre; — Improvements to the landscape and public realm, including a major new link between an enhanced White Hart Lane Station and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club (‘THFC’). In addition the site provides the opportunity to deliver an energy centre accommodating the plant required for a District Energy Network (DEN),that ultimately will serve the HRW Area, THFC and Northumberland Park Estate providing all hot water and space heating needs. The operator of the energy centre will be procured by HC, and will provide the plant required for the DEN. HC's Cabinet will be considering the business case for the DEN in September 2016. HC may include additional land within the area to be developed by the selected partner, should it be deemed to support the objectives of the High Road West regeneration scheme. HC's vision for the HRW Area is to create a vibrant and sustainable new neighbourhood with a blend of housing — increasing local residents' housing choice and supply, whilst also supporting the creation of a leisure destination for London (alongside the planned development at THFC). In order to meet its vision, HC has established the following project objectives: — To deliver comprehensive regeneration of the HRW Area that creates a vibrant, attractive and sustainable neighbourhood and supports the delivery of a new sports and leisure destination for London; — To regenerate the Love Lane Estate, ensuring that all current secure tenants are re housed within the area in high quality and high performing homes built to the London Mayor's Design Guide Standards; — To deliver a broad mix of tenures including innovative new affordable housing products and (potentially) Private Rented Sector in a tenure blind development; — To create a new attractive, vibrant and economically successful local centre within the south of the site, which supports both the future community and the creation of a leisure destination alongside planned development at THFC, whilst also measurably increasing employment opportunities; — To deliver new community infrastructure that meets the needs of an increased population, including a new library learning centre and if necessary health and educational facilities; — To secure wider social and economic benefits for the local community, including employment, education, health and community safety benefits as set out in the Tottenham People Programme; — To deliver high quality design which will create a healthy, safe and economically active neighbourhood and high quality architecture that responds to the existing character and heritage of the area; — To significantly increase the amount and quality of public space in the area, including delivering a new high quality public square, which is activated with community and other uses, to link White Hart Lane station to the High Road; — To ensure that environmental sustainability is designed into the scheme addressing urban challenges such as climate change adaption, noise pollution and air quality.
